Criticizing Republicans only blinds them more...
Everytime they are criticized, they circle the wagons and become more united. It's like a Catch-22. If you don't criticize them, they will all support legislation that is detrimental to themselves and the rest of us as a nation. If you do criticize them, they pull out the big guns and kill anyone that disgrees with them, figuratively speaking. That seems to be the present mentality of the modern Republican Party.

1. One word: reactionary
almost to the point of knowing they are wrong but being unable to admit it. Cornered and dangerous.

3. Cornered and dangerous
is exactly where we are headed. We are closer now to exposing some of their crap and as soon as we do watch out. It is not going to be pretty or fun but it has to happen.

6. rethugs react? Nahhhh.....
Not them. Ever. :eyes:

I love the average rethug's thinking. "bin Laden blew us up... let's go kill Iraqis."

The see:



And they become little lemmings:


And while they aren't paying attention, the administration of Neo-Death Cons and the christo-fascist zombie brigade are doing this to democracy and the American people:





P.S. Carl, loved the picture!

5. Attack the ideas, not the people
Any time you discuss politics with Republicans, show them the errors of the ideas they believe in. Don't let the discussion become a personal attack. You will win more converts if they begin to see the sense of your side.
